PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a scallop supply apparatus capable of simplifying operation of supplying a scallop to each of scallop holding devices mounted on a carrier conveyor which carries the scallop to a working apparatus for drilling a cultivating hole for the scallop, or the like, and capable of being efficiently automatized. SOLUTION: This scallop supply apparatus has a transfer table 3 over the scallop holding devices 2 attached to the carrier conveyor 1, so as to face an edge part 31 of the transfer table 3 to a position at which the scallop holding devices 2 are each supplied, has two pieces of screw transfer elements 5, 5 on the transfer table 3, so as to symmetrically arrange the elements at an interval corresponding to a size of the scallop, and further has a supply table 7 over the screw transfer elements 5, 5, wherein the screw transfer elements 5, 5 are rotated by being synchronized with a carrier speed of the carrier conveyor 1, so that the scallop A which is positioned on the supply table 7 and made its direction of the top to the bottom to be coincided with other scallops and its hinge to be turned toward the direction of being transferred is dropped into a space between the screw transfer elements 5, 5, regardless of a speed of the carrier conveyor, then transferred on the transfer table 3 with the screw transfer elements 5, 5, and further supplied to one of the scallop holding devices 2 through the edge part 31, by being upward stood in its posture with a resistant member 8 positioned near the edge part 31.
